Moving Around in the Library Catalog

Navigating in the library catalog is easy. As you search, a number of buttons will appear at the top and bottom of your screen. Some of the most common ones provide various search options, options for viewing your results, requesting items, and functions such as limiting, sorting, marking, printing, etc. your results. Here are some of the most frequently seen ones.
